§ 4. Feasibility
4.1. The customer assures that all information provided by them (section 2.1.) is correct and complete. If it turns out that information is inaccurate and the contractually owed service can therefore not be provided or can only be provided with considerable additional effort, the contractor has an extraordinary right of termination. In this case, the customer is obligated to pay damages to the contractor in accordance with Section 15.2 of these conditions.
4.2. The customer assures that before placing the order they have made sure that the planned service is possible from a public law perspective (e.g. statement of the responsible chimney sweep) and from actual circumstances (e.g. approval of the gas network operator) and that the local conditions allow the installation of the contractual system allow. If there are any concerns, these must be communicated to the contractor before the order is placed. If the contract cannot be carried out for these reasons, the obligation to pay damages applies analogously to Section 15.2. of these conditions.
§ 5. Interpretation of the contract
The contract concluded between the parties contains a final and comprehensive description of the subject of the service and takes precedence over all other documents. The contractor does not assume any further delivery and service obligations beyond the services expressly regulated in the contract. Agreed or necessary additional services are subject to remuneration in addition to the agreed fixed price.
The contractor's range of services ends at the handover point; the heating circuit distributor, which is usually located in the boiler room, is agreed as the handover point. Outside the contractor's scope of services, the inventory system is located from the handover point. Under no circumstances is the contractor liable for defects that occur in the area of the inventory system. The customer is responsible for the provision of a defect-free, in particular tight, existing system at the start of assembly, a power supply (230 V 16 A) and a functioning waste water system.

The agreement on the probable date for the delivery and installation of the heat generator, including the associated components and other items of the deliveries and services, is usually made after the cancellation period has expired. The contractor endeavours to take desired dates into account in the planning. Unless otherwise agreed, the appointment is usually confirmed two weeks before the planned start of assembly.
9.2. If the contractor or their suppliers or subcontractors are not responsible for disruptions in business operations, in particular cases of force majeure, strikes and lockouts, which are based on an unforeseeable event that is not their fault and lead to serious operational disruptions, the specified dates will be postponed accordingly.

In this case, the contractor is entitled to remuneration for the services rendered up to that point, whereby the services rendered also include claims by third parties which he commissioned in reliance on the execution of the contract. Further claims for damages are excluded on both sides.
9.3. If the contractor cannot meet the confirmed date, he will inform the customer immediately and agree on a new date. The onset of default by the contractor is determined according to the statutory provisions, whereby a deadline to be set is considered reasonable if it is not less than six weeks.

10.3. At the end of the payment period, but no later than 30 days after receipt of the invoice, the customer is in default according to § 268 paragraph 3 BGB without requiring a separate reminder. Interest is to be paid on the wages during the delay at the applicable statutory default interest rate. The contractor reserves the right to assert further damage caused by delay. The contractor's claim to the commercial interest due on maturity (§ 353 HGB) remains unaffected in relation to merchants.

The service provider will provide nuuEnergy with the address and creditworthiness data stored about you, including data determined on the basis of mathematical-statistical processes, provided nuuEnergy has credibly demonstrated a legitimate interest. The contractor is entitled to carry out or provide outstanding deliveries or services only against full advance payment or provision of security if circumstances become known to them after conclusion of the contract which are likely to significantly reduce the creditworthiness of the customer (e.g. an application for the opening of insolvency proceedings).
10.6. In the event of an assignment of the contractor's claims under this contract, the contractor will send an original notification of assignment signed by them with legal effect to the customer, which shows the name, address and account details of the new creditor, the amount of the assigned claim and the date of the assignment. Without full compliance with this obligation, the customer is still entitled to make payments to the contractor.
10.7. If it has been agreed with the customer that existing components of the old heating system will be used for the installation of the new system, but nuuEnergy determines on site that these components are not available/non-functional, nuuEnergy can refuse to provide the service until the required ones are available Components for the installation have been procured. The parties will agree separately on the costs and the obligation to bear the costs for the components mentioned. The customer is informed that an existing system that does not correspond to the current state of the art can lead to that the necessary prerequisites for the eligibility of the entire system for subsidies by the Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau or the BAFA or other institutes or public bodies commissioned with the processing of subsidies are no longer applicable and the overall function of the system may be impaired. For technical reasons, the contractor cannot check this before assembly.
§ 11. Funding

§ 13. Characteristics, claims for defects; statute of limitations
13.1 The delivery item is free of material defects if it corresponds to the product description or - if there is no product description - the respective state of the art. We reserve the right to make changes to the construction and/or design that do not affect the functionality or the value of the delivery item and do not entitle us to make a complaint. In the case of defects that do not or only insignificantly affect the value and/or the usability of the delivered item, there are no claims for defects.
13.2 Guarantees for the quality and durability of the delivery item are only deemed to have been accepted if the contractor has expressly declared the guarantee as such in writing. The contractor is only responsible for public statements, especially in advertising, if he caused them to be made. Claims for defects can only be asserted on the basis of such a statement if the statement actually influenced the customer's purchase decision. Guarantees that sub-suppliers assume in guarantee declarations, relevant advertising or other product documents are not initiated by the contractor. They only bind the supplier who declares this acceptance of guarantee. Paragraph 1 of this clause remains unaffected.
13.3 Complaints about defects are to be made immediately and are excluded if they are not received within 2 weeks of receipt of the delivery. Defects that could not be discovered within this period even with the most careful examination must be reported immediately, but no later than 2 weeks after their discovery. The regulation on transport damage remains unaffected.
13.4 If the delivered item is defective or does not correspond to a guaranteed quality, the contractor will remedy the defect free of charge within a reasonable period of time either by repair or delivery of a defect-free item (subsequent performance). The customer must give the contractor or his authorised representative the time and opportunity to do so. If this does not happen or if changes or repairs are made to the object complained about, this releases the contractor from liability for defects.
13.5 If the supplementary performance fails or does not take place within a reasonable grace period set by the customer, the statutory warranty rights apply. Withdrawal is excluded.
13.6. Claims by the customer for damages or reimbursement of expenses exist in accordance with Section 14 and are otherwise excluded.

(c) the use of products that are not compatible with the heating system,
(d) changes to the heating system (in particular due to replaced parts or consumables that do not correspond to the original specifications),
(e) other actions, contrary to the specifications of the contractor (in particular operating, operating or maintenance instructions).
Furthermore, the contractor shall not assume any liability for defects in the existing system, in particular defects in the existing heating piping, the radiators or thermostats.
This expressly also applies to consequential damage, in particular due to leaks occurring in the existing system.
